If you like stupid rules, this is the place for you! Our family got there the day before us and we planned to get there early on the day of our check in to hang out at their sites. We booked a cabin and didn't expect it to be ready when we got there but the staff wouldn't let us on the property to hang out with our family. The kids couldn't play with their cousins and we missed hours of time together. The place was half empty so it wasn't a capacity issue. The gate lady was really rude and the experience with these people ruined a big part of our trip.

This is the nicest KOA we have ever been to! Staff was very friendly and helpful, the kids loved the playground and heated pool. Everything was clean and well maintained. The only minor complaint is the dog parks are pretty small.

Great location close to ocean (1 mile) that you can walk and go to beach. Full service available - this helped us a lot as first time RV experience. They have store so you can get anything that you may have missed. Lot of bikes to rent and fun activities for kids and family.

When we arrived, we were assigned a different site than originally booked — no problem in itself. Unfortunately, the new site number was entered incorrectly into their system. The next morning we went out to visit Monterey, and when we returned, our table and belongings had been removed. Apparently the staff thought the site was vacant because of the mix-up. Some of our items (those that were on the table) were later found, but the table itself was missing. We received only a brief apology and no compensation. The woman at the front desk also refused to find out who had cleared our site (suf on table), so we couldn’t even ask what happened to the table. Overall, a careless and unhelpful response to a mistake probably made by their own staff. A real shame, as the location itself is fine.

Very nice RV park it is well taken care of! Office staff super friendly and great customer service. Nice wide roads and the parking for the RV is super level. A lot for fun things for kids to do. Great location for surrounding areas to visit. The only thing is a bundle of wood is $20 super expensive. Emily was friendly and helpful! Overall great KOA!
